HQL Info

The Maryland 2013 Firearms Safety Act goes into effect October 1, 2013 and requires fingerprinting of all applicants who purchase, rent or receive a handgun through a Handgun Qualification License (H.Q.L).

The required electronic fingerprinting is offered at and in our firearm classes and at any of our three locations: Bethesda, Rockville and Silver Spring, MD. We are currently forming classes for the new Maryland Handgun Qualification License (H.Q.L.) firearms safety training requirement.

American Identity Solutions offers M.S.P qualified Handgun Instructors for our H.Q.L and advance handgun courses. Included in our courses for an additional fee, is the required live scan fingerprinting for the Maryland State Police firearm application process. If you are exempt from H.Q.L class but still need your fingerprints electronically submitted you could do so at any of our three office locations.
